AFE president David Aganzo said players were "angry and surprised" about the proposals and didn't rule out a strike to block any potential game being played this season.

However, Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde suggested in a recent news conference that the players were most upset that they were not consulted.

Aficiones Unidas, which represents fans in Spain, also complained about the agreement, saying home supporters are being "disrespected."

Peton guaranteed his club's supporters that they would find a solution which left them satisfied and added that Huesca would be willing to give up one of their home games to play in the U.S.

"It doesn't matter to us if it's a home game or an away game," he said. "We would find a formula to ensure our fans are happy. I'm sure we would find an agreement [with the fans]. We are really interested in this idea."

Spain's sports minister, Jose Guirao, has said a deal must be reached between La Liga and its players and that the league must find a way to expand overseas without its interests conflicting with those of domestic fans. La Liga and AFE will meet in September.
